From just eyeballing, this Hurst switch sure looks like it would fit sans the 6 Volt vs 12 Volt issue maybe?

Hi Howard,
I believe I found the backup light switch. Can the switch be unscrewed from the bracket? The vendor sells the combo, but I don't need a bracket, just the switch. It was very visible at the end of the steering column in the engine bay.

Hi Howard, all set, the Napa SL134 and Autozone/Duralast F4805 stop light switches fit perfectly. The Napa came with plumbers tape on it but did have a not approved for purple silicon DOT 5 brake fluid note attached. I use DOT 5 brake fluid. I still used the Napa switch and it worked fine. Another question, my backup lights don't work. I surmise that switch is toast as well. Where is the location of the back up light switch on the trans?

Hi Howard, change up.....how often does my 359 aluminum head need to be re-torqued? What are the torque specs and torque order?

Hi, I found the location. Under the steering column to the left I think. Is the switch something I can easily unscrew and replace? I have attached 3x photos. To inspect and add brake fluid do I unscrew the square nut in the 3rd photo?
